Illume Candles X Meenal Patel

I collaborated with ILLUME on a collection of candles as a part of their Artist Series where they celebrate the joy and connection that art brings to life with limited edition artist collaborations.

The collection features three fresh fragrances rooted in the natural world and inspired by my time living in California: Talking Trees, Forest Flora, and Rainy Walk. I worked with Illume's fragrance director, Greta Pagel, to bring some of my favorite nature memories to life and pair them with paintings from my Bloom Upon Bloom series. I had so much fun working with the lovely ILLUME team to connect memories of hiking in foggy cloud forests and soaking up ocean air with the feeling of making this art.

You can purchase the collection through the ILLUME website.
